A freight elevator, also known as a goods lift, is an elevator specifically designed to carry goods rather than passengers. They are typically larger and stronger than passenger elevators, capable of handling heavier loads. Think of them as the SUVs of the elevator world. Freight elevators are commonly found in warehouses, factories, and other industrial settings. Their primary function is to efficiently move materials between different floors. Safety features are crucial, including load sensors and durable construction.
